It's no secret that I adore Bobbi Brown, I've been using their products for over 6 years now and I fall in love a little more every time I make a new purchase.
When I first started to wear makeup, my mum took me to Bobbi Brown to get some essentials. I'm going to do a post on a Bobbi Brown started kit, so I won't go into that now, but since I'm now 20 you can tell it's been a long standing relationship!
My most recent purchase has been the Shimmer Brick in Pink Quartz. I already have the shimmer bricks in Rose, Bronze and Limited Edition Gold. In the past I have also had an Apricot one, and Platinum Pink. Unfortunately these two didn't make it through the hold of a long haul flight, and I was heartbroken. I've always loved these as I find they're a fantastically versatile product and then literally do last for years, so while the price is a stinger at first, I feel that it is actually quite justifiable.
Pink Quartz is made up of pink and tan shades that can be used separately or swirled together, leaving an amazing rose gold sheen to the skin.
You may be wondering how this fares compared to the limited edition Rose Gold shimmer brick that is out, and my personal opinion is that this one is better. The Rose Gold one is made up of all pink tones, whereas the Rose Quartz shimmer brick has tan shades that can be used on it's own to create an amazing neutral shimmery eye as well as achieving that rose gold look.
At around £30 these are undoubtedly a luxury makeup item, but they're an amazing product that really lasts and the packaging is beautiful too. You just don't get things as special as these from somewhere like MAC!
What do you think lovelies?
